Uxbridge Flint Brick Co. Ltd. and later owners plant at Uxbridge, England

Asbestos, the industry's trade journal, reported in December 1947 that Cape Asbestos Co. of London had acquired "the factory of the Uxbridge Flint Brick Co. Ltd., at Uxbridge, England," possibly late in 1946, "for the purpose of extending its Pluto board manufactures."1 In July 1953 the same journal wrote that "another plant at Uxbridge produces a new incombustible insulation board, Asbestolux, for the building industry."2
